What would you do if you picked this roll of quarters up for under melt price?

  1. Flip it for a quick buck

    15.8%
  2. Search it for potential errors/toners

    55.3%
  3. Tuck it away and look at it again in 20 years?

    28.9%
  4. Troll vote (because why not?)

    21.1%

    Remember what I said about not needing the money. It's because I have a very low key lifestyle (and an income to match). I have enough to meet my moderate needs and I am satisfied with that. The downside of that is since money has no allure, there is no incentive to dispose of anything that I do have no matter how much it would bring me.

    i admit I do play the lottery from time to time (Only when it is over $300 M) but one of my greatest fears is what would I do if I ever won. It would wreck my life.

    Low key lifestyles are nice to have. I look forward to that someday. I also live below my means and keep absolutely everything budgeted. I am glad you are happy with how you live; that matters more than anything else.

    No harm in playing the lottery as long as it's not money coming from somewhere important like food/bills. I admit that I play when the lottery is quite high as well.

    It looks like everyone thinks I should search it though the Troll vote had a decent showing. I'll take that into consideration. I'm thinking I might peel it open slowly and just put them all into 2x2s and then really look at them. My copy stand is packed away so follow up photos will be not be so good. I'll follow up here if I end up opening the roll. Thank you for the input.

    Haha, that actually is unrolled... I had to hold the roll open with my fingers for the shot.

    I personally feel out of my league when the coins are beyond MS62. I think the average is between 62-64. There are a few that might grade higher but not much; I'm thinking MS 65 is my best but I'll take them to a few more knowledgeable folks and get their opinions. Of course, I welcome yours. I apologize for the sloppy photos, but I was in a rush and my copy stand is packed away. No, I will not pull them from the 2x2s to take better photos, sorry but I'm not risking dropping them a grade out of clumsiness to get a better shot. I will take better focused photos soon but my time is limited at the moment. Please ignore the varying colors, they are all blast white.
